Just to confuse matters it came with a Subaru badge... I've heard the kit is actually manufactured in a Suzuki factory, like all other Lexus.

Thought I'd play today with the camber bushings in the new dampers, and see how easy it actually is to change the camber setting from -1.5 to -2.5.

Amazing, once you have the wheel off, it takes all of about 3 minutes per side, and is ultra precise.

Seems an extremely simple system for camber adjustment.

Installed the Verus end plates, Dive planes since it was there. Also did the center close out panels and CF driveshaft. This completes the Ventus 3 package on my car, except the side splitters since I have the STI side splitters. Now I just wish the track would open!

Haven’t found any effect on the other settings yet.

This was last month but I didn't have a decent picture. Got my girl some earrings for our first anniversary.

As I hadn't driven my car for about 4 weeks, surprise surprise the battery is dead.. Took the battery out, put it on charge. The car will probably stay "battery-less" for another 4 to 6 weeks.. At least the battery will be juiced up and ready to roll..

Received LED fog light bought from @MugsBRZ. Sent payment Friday and received today. I appreciate the fact that they came with the necessary adapters and extra hardware. Well packaged, quick, and easy

Now just need to get the front end repaired so I can move on to more fun mods.

Probably want to shift the car a bit every week or 2 so it's not sitting on the same spot on the tire (potentially develop flat spots after sitting). They usually round out again before too long but why not avoid it altogether.
